...from Town & Country Baby Names: "...[g]irls have appropriated the unisex names....That trend is not new -- Alice, Anne, Crystal, Lucy and Maude all used to be boys names."
Carol and Stacey, yes; Kim, sure. But Alice?!!!
(An explanatory aside to those closest to me: No, we have no reason to be looking for baby names. We just like looking at baby names. Sorry!)
BTW, a lovely name for a baby is Owen, which is the name of my good friend's little boy. Check her out at La Vida Lisa; you won't regret it!

Maude used to be a boy's name? This has shattered my perception of the world at large.
Also, thanks for the plug.
